Did you talk to Terry? He is always cool to deal with...I've talked to him a few times, but I haven't ordered an arm...yet.
$825 is a good price! I can't wait to see the arm.!
Well i tried to order a mac arm . No one picked up the phone so i left a number and name ....He called me back a WEEK later..
I told Terry Sorry i allready ordered a Trac arm ...I had money to spend and he clearly didn't need it ..
It looks like no company is perfect, believe it or not...go figure.

Star Racing can get anything I use that schnitz does, and has always met or beat their price. I have no reason to call the people in that office for anything, and won't.

Remember a while back Ryan got on here and contacted a few people on here and tried resolving their problems?? Ask them if he ever got back with them?

Shane if you get a new Mac arm i'd like dibs in your old arm ..

I bought an alumipro swingarm from Terry and his product and customer service are top notch. Just got my forks back from him. He took 3 inches out of them and they look great. Thinking of getting the sub frame that he makes for the zx-14. Terry is a good guy to do business with. I agree with 14nobody, any time you have a problem with Schnitz its never their fault. The put the blame on the maker of the part and you have to deal with them, not Schnitz from who you bought it from. I try to shop with Spencer cycle and Orient Express as much as I can.

ryan contacted me and basically apologized... but I would only buy from them if it was a last resort. Hell, I'll give my business to muzzys before calling them again, and we all know how great muzzys customer service is.

that's weird. schnitz has been great every time I've called them. I've picked their brains about nitrous on more then one occasion, and I got a couple parts from them.

Well,
It came in and I am impressed with the workmanship of this arm. I will weigh and post pics after I install it tomorrow.

That arm is gorgeous!
Weigh the stocker on the same scale, so we can see the difference.
Can't wait to see more pics!

i know my mcintosh arm using the stock brake hanger, not the little tab on the right side. thats for a support/brace to keep the brake hanger in one spot.

Dusty, I was wondering the same thing. It came with like a 12 inch rod to keep the brake hanger still. I am installing it today but I may want to order the small hanger that Shane has. The factory one is overkill.

Mmmmm jealous over that swingarm.
On a side note Schnitz has been really good with customer service with me. Everytime I've ordered something and they couldn't send it right away I'd get a call. Talked to Ryan the other day about Dyno Time. Seems like a nice guy

I don' think the small hanger that I have will work without a little machining.

One other not while installing my arm........................The 3 hole lowering links suck!!!!! My bike was sitting at stock height in the 3rd hole with my Muzzy links. There was a 1 1/4 difference between where the lowering links mounted on the stock arm vs. where they mounted on my new arm. Luckily my friend had a set of adjustable links and I sure wish I had known going into this project that I needed to have adjustable links.

Not the best pictures. Also one thing that I liked about this arm is that the NOS bracket is removable which is not shown in the pictures because I took it off.
